Dual core or Quad core?

[Goncalo Lopes]

I've seen alot of answers and still they differ alot, so, i have a sabertooth x87 and it's for a rig that it's rly just for gaming and some small video editing, what should fit me best? a i3 4130 3.4GHZ or a i5 4430 3.oGHZ?

Personally, I'd go with the quad core. It will help in video editing, and newer games are making better use of more cores.

if you just bought a 200 motherboard i think you'll want a 200+ cpu. don't skimp, get a k series cpu, like an i5-4670k or i7-4770k

if you don't get those cpus you'll have spent 150 too much on the motherboard, as you'll have a nice expensive motherboard you're not using at all.
